This is a re-post from the archives. This was originally posted last April (2012), but I wanted to share it again, in honor of May being the month that we celebrate mothers and all they do!
{Moments from a day in my life…}
{Helping my husband work on the lawnmower. }
{Rosemary Chicken with rosemary from my herb garden.}
{The chocolate sheet cake in the background was made by my daughter to take to a gathering. She did a great job, and I’m so proud of her!}
Mothers have such an important job! We love our husbands and children, cook, clean, bandage cuts and bruises, read stories, nurse babies, and many of us homeschool in addition to all that. It is such a high calling, but sometimes it’s so easy to feel discouraged and weary. Blessings to all the mothers who might read this! Keep going, your family needs you! (If you’re reading this and you’re not a mother, you still have a high calling to do whatever it is He has called you to do. May you be blessed as you do His will!)
“Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might…”
~Ecclesiastes 9:10
“She…willingly works with her hands.”
~Proverbs 31:13
“Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.”
~Proverbs 31:31

Thank you so much!
Marianne,
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely comment! I hope your day has been blessed as well!
Lovely, lovely, lovely! A picture certainly is worth 1000 words. How I love the many 'jobs' I have as a mother. Blessings to you today!

your photos are beautiful… my days look as lovely and be as full of true things… blessings!
I found your link through The Modest Mom link-up. I needed to be reminded of the worth of what I am doing and to not grow weary in doing good in my home. Steady plodding will get me to the end goal. I so often go through my days without enjoying all the blessing God has put around me (6 wonderful children from 10 months to 10 years, with recent news of another to come in December, and an amazing husband). I survive. Oh Lord, return to me the joy of Thy salvation! My husband and children deserve my best! Not to mention, my Lord.
Thanks! I look forward to looking around your blog.
